3. Kettlebell workout

What is it: Kettlebells are circular weights with handles that you can use for a variety of applications, including building muscle in your arms, back and core.

You can create your own kettlebell workout to target any area muscle group. To work your whole body, set the weights on the floor and lift them in an explosive “clean” style. If you’re up for more of a challenge, try to leap off the ground as you lift the kettlebells. You can also use these weights for single-arm lifts, squats, floor presses, and “jerk” lifts. If you’re strong enough, start with a kettlebell in one hand, then swing your arm forward to 90 degrees, then backward to the 90-degree mark.
